Smig
Foster in BristolSmig has spent most of her kittenhood pregnant and raising her babies - she just wants a chance to be herself now :)Smig is a playful, pretty cat - a big kitten at heart. She's only a year old and has just raised 4 kittens (which she found a bit stressful!), so is looking forward to a loving home of her own.She loves all sorts of play - when she catches her toy mouse she'll proudly walk around miaowing to let everyone know.She adores head scratches, and will occasionally settle down on your lap as well but life's too much fun to sit around for long! She's desperate to go outside so a garden away from busy roads is a must.Her enthusiasm and sheer exuberance for life means she gets a bit carried away at times so older children would be best and no other pets - it's her turn to shine.Neutered, chipped, had first vaccination plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance. - New
Dora and Lily
Foster in BristolWe're busy doing nothing...Anyone up for two lazy, sleepy sisters?!We're looking for a foster to adopt, indoor home for these 10 yr old tabby beauties ie you'll foster them whilst we get them vet checked, vaccinated etc then you officially adopt them when they get the all clear from the vet :)Lily and Dora are part Bengal but you'd never guess!They have always been indoor cats and would like to stay that way.Lily is independent and is happy to curl up and sleep on her own but she does also love a cuddle with you when it suits her, she’s a big softy really. She loves to get under a blanket or duvet with you so she can get super snug.Dora is like a shadow and follows you everywhere for some attention, she loves to be cuddled up with you. Dora also loves to drink from a running tap and is a loud purrer when she’s getting some attentionThey both love to cuddle up together and snooze all afternoonThey both love anything fishy, not so keen on other flavours of food.Neutered, chipped plus come with 5 weeks free insurance. - New
Lottie, Lemon, Luna and Lime
Foster in Bristol, ReservedThey haven’t had the best start in life, they were born on a construction site and were strays before coming to us. You wouldn’t know it though! They are all lovely, adventurous and people orientated and would suit a family home with a garden away from busy roads for when they are older. They would be fine with older children who understand how to play carefully.We, of course, thought Lemon and Lime would be a pair but Lottie (tabby) and Lemon (calico) are completely devoted to each other and must go as a pair. They are the more adventurous kittens, Lemon is always first to suss out anything new and they enjoy chasing each other’s tails and pouncing on each other. In the morning they’re usually curled up in a cuddle puddle together and will climb on their fosterer’s lap for a quick hello before they’re off playing again.Lime and Luna are the two tortoiseshells and they are also very bouncy and playful but are a bit more people focused, they’ll often jump on a lap for a cuddle and are responsive to calls already. They are the marginally calmer pair and will want lots of attention and head scritches. They will also be rehomed as a pair so that they can have all the company they need.9 weeks old, vet checked, had first vaccinations plus come with 5 weeks free insurance. 
Ruby and Roxy
Foster in Bristol, ReservedTwice as nice
Gorgeous Ruby and Roxy are 18mo sisters who spent their early lives being kept outside where they both had two litters of kittens before being rescued.They have come to love the comforts of home life, especially regular food!Ruby is the braver of the two, always coming to say hello with surprisingly powerful head-bumps. Roxy is a little more cautious but the brains of the operation, and has begun to join her foster parents on the bed or the sofa where she'll purr like crazy before sometimes spooking herself.They love to play with their toys, chase and pounce on each other so a garden away from busy roads would be good to burn off some energy.They'll need a quieter home and would like to stay together.Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.
Rosie
Foster in BristolTortieliciousThis pretty girl likes company and will often come and put her head in my lap for some affection. She loves her head bring rubbed, her back not so much - but she wouldn't be a tortie without some quirks! She usually sits nearby when I am home and likes to chat with her cute little miaows and chirrups.Rosie loves food but the wet food must be one particular brand! She will chase a teaser for about 5-10 mins a day and I also throw her some treats which she will chase for but she's not the most active of cats.She can give a little lovebite when she's had enough so no young children and she'd very much like to be the only pet. A garden away from busy roads completes her wishlist.4 yrs old, neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.
Ford and Mystique
Foster in Bristol, ReservedBeautiful sisters- half Russian Blues :)Ford (more grey on face) is a calm, quiet kitty with a lovely temperament. She likes to sit on the windowsill or go under the bed for some peace and quiet. She can be unsure and nervous in new surroundings. She needs lots of patience and encouragement to come out of her shell. Once she does her lovely personality comes to the fore!Ford is very gentle, loving and sweet jumping up for chin rubs and headbutts with her humans. She can also be very playful particularly if it involves toy mice! She is very curious and after a long day of chilling loves to scamper around the house. She has a unique purring sound which makes it sound like she has swallowed a turkey when she is happy!! House trained and very well behaved, knowing only to scratch the scratch pad.Mystique, is the dominant one and sometimes they bicker and hiss, but love napping together.Mystique is super cheeky, with high energy, her foster humans have nicknamed her ‘Mys-chief’. Loves to run around the house having zoomies with toy mice and playing football.She adapts very quickly to new environments and has a lot of confidence to explore new home and new people. Mystique can be very vocal when she requires attention, she often leaves the room then meows for her foster humans to come and find her to give her what she wants! She is super independent and finds her own fun and trouble..! She is desperate to get outside (even escaped twice
).These two need to be homed together, even though Mystique sometimes gets overexcited and will hiss at Ford when playing, She loves to know her sister is there and often seeks her out to sleep in the same place.They are both nervous at times so would best suit a house without small children. They had previously lived with other cats but both seem to love attention and so I think they would prefer to be the only cats in the householdThey have really come out of their shells since being in foster and actively seek us out for cuddles but we are a quiet household and even if we come up the stairs a bit too fast they will go under the bed and hide. They'll need a garden away from busy roads.18 months, neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.
Kirby and Kiwi
Foster in Bristol, ReservedGorgeous siblings looking for their new human(s) to love and cherish them. These sisters were found with their stray mum and have adapted really well to foster care. Kirby (lighter in colour) is the outgoing one, the first to greet me and look for cuddles. She sits on my lap & purrs like a train. Kiwi (darker & fluffy) is a little more timid but is growing in confidence each day.They'll need a quieter home, should be fine with other cats and would love a garden away from busy roads.They are approx 12 weeks, vet checked, chipped, had first vaccinations plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.
Dorcha and Bronwen
Foster in BristolDorcha (fluffy) and Bronwyn (white bib) are two curious, independent-minded sisters, 9 weeks old.Dorcha is the more outgoing - keen to come and find out what you're doing, and play with whatever is on offer. She's fascinated by screens and windows, and loves to hunt flies and feet. She has a very soft coat, and likes strokes if you catch her in the right mood.Bronwyn is a bit of a dreamer, and still learning to trust humans. She likes to potter about doing her own thing, occasionally chattering to herself. She loves a romp and playfight with her sister."They're a bit shy for young children but should be fine with other cats and need a garden away from busy roads.Vet checked, chipped, had first vaccination plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.
Wilma
Foster in Bristol, ReservedThis is Wilma! A fluffy, soft little love bug who would make the perfect companionShe was found in a bush, very skinny with a mouth full of horrible teeth and abscesses. She spent 2 months in the local vet where they tried to find an owner and kindly did her dental at their own expense.Wilma has a short wishlist when it comes to her new home:1. Food glorious food2. A couple of grooms with a cat brush every day3. A never ending expectation of head rubs and chin strokes4. Grade A cat nipWilma is extremely affectionate and adores being around company. She absolutely loves having her head rubbed and has the softest tufts of hair around her chin which makes stroking time extremely therapeutic for her and you - this has led to her and her foster mum ending up having a few unscheduled cat naps during the day.She is very proud of her appearance and prides herself in keeping herself fluffy and soft, ready for strokes. She will stand like a show dog purring loudly when she is groomed with a brush.Wilma is very playful and loves ripping apart toy mice - she turns into a little lion. She’s not the most elegant kitty when she’s playful - it’s as though she has 4 left paws.You wouldn’t think Wilma was 12. She’s energetic but very chilled at the same time and nothing seems to phase her.Likes to chill outside in the sun so a safe little garden would suit her as she doesn’t have the appetite to venture far.Because she loves company she wouldn’t be happy if she were left alone for long periods of time.We dont know much of her past experience so don't know if she's lived with children; older ones who respect her boundaries may be ok but would need to be a quiet home and be the only cat. She's definitely not keen on dogs!Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.
Bramble
Home-from-home adoptionQuiet home needed for older lady12yr old Bramble is a characterful cat who likes a quiet home and plenty of back scratches and strokes. She is friendly on her terms and when you are quiet and let her come to you she is super friendly and affectionate and will sit on, or next to a calm, quiet person or even sleep on their bed. Unfortunately our children are not the calm people Bramble enjoys living with and she needs a new home. She tends to hide away when the children are up and about.She is a very easy pet who can be happily left alone when you're out. Like all cats she has specific tastes in food - she loves dry cat food and tinned tuna, with a drink of water. If she gets the chance to sip rain water from a puddle in the garden she likes it even more! She would prefer to be the sole pet in the home. She has a little fluffy belly which is super cute.Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.Bramble is still with her owner as we have no space.
Gemini and Leo
Foster in Bristol, ReservedWe have two of Twinkletoe's kittens looking for a home togetherGemini (light grey) and long haired Leo were born outside with no human contact and were both very fiesty and scared when we trapped them. Their mum had done a great job nursing them but discovering kitten food has really helped them to come out of their shells - they love their bellies!!Gemini is still quite timid but with the help of her big lion brother Leo, to hide behind, she is beginning to enjoy a cuddle
Leo is very vocal and cries for attention, he is so cute and has a lovely soft coat. They are typical kittens with boundless energy, their favourite toy is a feathery string to chase but foster mum gets worn out before they do!They'll need a garden away from busy roads.About 4 months old, chipped and vaccinated plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.
Ozzie
Foster in BristolOzzie is another stray boy who is learning to enjoy home life again - he was obviously a pet at one time but his owner didn't get him neutered or chipped and he's been on the streets for a while.He's about 4 yrs old and enjoys a fuss and loves watching the kittens in the next pen and tries to play with them so we think he'll be ok with other nice cats.He needs a gentle approach and a quieter home as he's still learning the ropes but he's a sweet boy and eager to please.He'd love a garden away from busy roads please.Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.
Bluebell
Home-from-home adoptionBluebell loves exploring the garden and sitting in the sun. She is nervous of new places so will need time to settle in but then she is affectionate and likes a lap to sit on and chin rubs. She likes to chase scrunched up paper and prefers dry food to wet. She would like a calm house with a patient owner. She is in very early renal failure so needs to be on a renal diet- BWCR can help fund this.13 yrs old, neutered, chipped, had first vaccination plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.She's still with their owner as we have no space.
Penny
Foster in BristolMeet the cheekiest kitten ever! Penny is sister to Matilda and Marmite but had the misfortune to be hit by a car before she was rescued." Penny's had her final check with the orthopaedic vet and been signed off with advice that she may grow up to have one leg slightly shorter than the other, but no sign of this yet.She has been in a crate for a couple of months while her leg has healed and so she is a typical single kitten with no manners!Penny is also the most loving, affectionate kitten, she sleeps on my pillow right next to my head every night, and loves a snuggle.She gets the zoomies multiple times a day and as she was in a crate during her critical socialisation period as a kitten, she hasn't quite learned what no means yet! Because of this I'd advise no young children as her teeth and claws do leave marks.If you try and tell her off you get a lot of backchat and grumbles from her - she"s incorrigible!She is very scared of other animals, so she needs a home with no other pets, please. She'd loveva garden away from busy roads now she's fighting fit.Penny had a rough start so needs someone who has time for her and will be able to give her all the love she deserves."About 15 weeks old, vet checked and had first vaccination plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.
Archie
Foster in BristolArchie- Looking for a long- term foster home.Can anyone offer this gorgeous boy a forever home, he is 14yrs old but, other than needing a dental, (BWCR will pay for this at our vets) is in good health for his age, he has been shaved due to his matted fur. His owners have been told by their landlord they can’t keep him so sadly have asked for help to find him another home. He hates other cats so needs to be the only pet, has lived with an older child before so could cope with that again but does need a quiet home. He can be a bit grumpy if messed about with too much so needs an experienced owner who will read the signs but he does love a warm lap to curl up on.Archie likes to go out and is a bit of a wanderer so needs a home away from any busy roads.
Soxx and Sampson
Foster in BristolFound outside as kittens, now living and loving the good life!!"This adorable pair of kittens are looking for their forever home! 4 month old brothers Soxx (b&w) and Sampson (tabby) are the cheekiest, most wonderfully curious boys who have given their foster parents so many laughs in the time they’ve been here. They both absolutely love playtime and it’s so much fun to watch them chase their wand toys and go wild for their cat springs. If you want to get a bit creative they also love makeshift pillow forts and paper bag ambushes! Soxx is the more confident of the two, he goes all in at playtime - it’s amazing to watch him leap and tumble! Sampson is a little more hesitant but we think he’s going to grow into a really smart boy, you can see him working things out, carefully considering his toys before he pounces. They absolutely love to chase and wrestle with each other, taking it in turns to be the “prey” and then ending their “hunts” with a mutual grooming session!These playful beans were a little undersocialised when they came to us, so they aren’t the type to hang out in your lap, but they have made great progress, enjoying a good fuss while purring like little tractors, so a patient forever family will surely be able to bring out their affectionate side. We’ve noticed that they have started to only want to spend time in whatever room we are in, which is so sweet, especially since it means we get to watch them play together while we watch tv
As you have probably guessed, these two have an iron clad bond, so they must be taken together as they are the best of friends."A garden away from busy roads is a must for these two. No other pets and older children only.Chipped, had first vaccination plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.***If you're interested please mail us at [email protected] ***
Marmalade and Cinnamon
Foster in Bristol, ReservedWe think these two may be father and daughter, they love hanging out and snuggling together.Marmalade is an affectionate 6-year-old boy. He was anxious at first but has really come out of his shell. He loves head bumps and having his fur brushed which brings out loud purrs. He also likes to play with his toy on a string or the laser pointer. He loves Cinnamon but doesn’t seem to like any other cats.Cinnamon is 2 years old and a fearless little ninja! She can climb and play all day. She’s also very sweet and friendly and gets on with everyone. She could probably thrive in most families, but is very active and playful so needs someone who will pay her the attention she deserves.They both show interest in outdoors so would love a garden away from busy roads to explore. They are super affectionate with each other so should be adopted together.Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.
Salt, Pepper and Hot Chip
Foster in BristolThese three gorgeous floofsters were found as tiny kittens, in a tyre, when we were trapping at a farm - at first our trappers thought the meows were coming from their mum but thank goodness they searched further and found these babies.Now 11 months old the triplets, Salt (F), Pepper (F) and Hot Chip (M), are ready for rehoming. It took a while as we wanted to keep them together and little girlie Salt just never seemed to grow.She has had extensive tests including advice from Langford and, apart from being low in Vit B12 she has passed them all with with flying colours.She has always been well in herself showing no obvious signs of illness, just a teeny tiny floofball.They are all bundles of floofy friendly joy, very similar in character and just love to play together and can't get enough attention from their hoomans. Alhough Salt is still a bit smaller, she seems to be catching up and is definitely the boss!They'd be fine with children and would love a garden away from busy roads. They must stay together.Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.
Adeline and Zade
Foster in BristolTwo beautiful 15 week old kittens, these two were being given away in a car park and obviously hadn’t been well socialised as were very shy when they came in to foster. After 5 weeks they are now so much better , they can still be skitty if people are loud or moving around but once they realise they aren’t in danger they are quite happy coming out to play. They both love a lap and are proper cuddle bunnies once it’s nap time.As they are still a little skitty they would do best in an adult only home though older teenage children may be okay.Will need access to a garden away from busy roads and a cat flap would be preferable.Vet checked and had first vaccinations plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.
Heikkie
Foster in Bristol, ReservedHeikkie is an 11 yr old kitten who still loves to play!She did live with another cat, however she doesn’t like to share and gets quite jealous - she would much prefer to be the only cat and have someone’s undivided attention. She is also very scared of dogs.She loves peace, quiet … and eating chicken! She is quite timid, but when she is happy around someone, she is quite a character and will happily hold proper conversations, winding herself around ankles and head-butting. She will sit on your lap, especially if you are wearing jeans for some reason...She's not crazy about being picked up and grooming does need doing on her terms!As she is quite timid, she is not a big explorer, preferring to chase insects in the garden and then watching the world from a safe spot.She eats dry food (and chicken!!) and has a good appetite. She has a thing for fresh water and follows me when I’m changing the water in her bowl so she can get to it first!Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.
Blue
Home-from-home adoptionCheeky chappyBlue is 7 and came to us as a kitten with his brother, Diddy. All was well until we had to move house a year later. We moved about a 3-minute walk away. Diddy transitioned very easily, but 6 years later, sadly Blue still won’t accept our home as his home.He is territorial and is King Cat on our old road. It hasn’t helped that people in one house feed him and let him sleep there. We’ve tried everything to bring him home: locking him in for up to 3 weeks on numerous occasions, giving him amazing treats, using Feliway, even putting butter on his paws! But he just disappears back to his old haunt, and he doesn’t come home to us for weeks at a time. In summer, he doesn’t come home at all.This situation obviously makes us sad. And in the houses on our old road, Blue isn’t necessarily welcome - quite understandably. He does tailgate other cats through their cat flaps and eat their food
He loves a stroke on his head and gets all purry, he'll also eat treats from your hand and is happy to be picked up. He'd be fine with older children but absolutely hates dogs!He'll need a garden away from busy roads and really needs a home where he can be happy and settled.Neutered, chipped vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.Blue is still with his owner (or the neighbours!) as we have no space.
Ed
Foster in BristolThis little chap is only one year old but has already had 4 homes and ended up on a "free to good home" site un-neutered
Can we show Ed that there are still decent people in this world? He's only known selfish and irresponsible so far and deserves so much better. He's affectionate and bears no grudges though he's a little confused and who could blame him.He seems ok with other cats - he had a tiny hiss and raised a paw but no fisticuffs ensued!He's a sweet boy who would be fine with older children and needs a garden away from busy roads.Neutered, chipped, had first vaccination plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.
Bob, Charlie and Neve
Foster in BristolRemember ginger Bob?He says a huge thank you to everyone who donated to his entropion op and now he's fighting fit and looking for a home along with his besties Charlie and Neve. They were all what are commonly now known as "community cats" ie fed by people but not offered a home or vet treatment etc so they're used to humans but still suspicious!With time they will become friendly so are initially looking for a cosy barn-type home (or even a back garden) where they can earn their keep as mousers with perhaps an opportunity to eventually come indoors and make friends properly!They're all youngsters and just need a bit of TLC and looking out for- Bob's entropion shouldn't recur but BWCR would sort again if it did. Similarly Charlie had a polyp removed from his ear/throat and needs keeping an eye on.Not to be left out, Neve has pristine snowy white lug holes which are more prone to cancer in the sun!These boys have been dealt a rough hand so far and now need somewhere soft to land with hoomans who will love them and value them.Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.
India
Foster in Bristol, ReservedIndia moved herself out of a chaotic multi-cat household about 3 yrs ago and chose a neighbour to live with - this girl knows her own mind! Unfortunately he also had his own moggies so it still wasn't ideal. She really doesn't like other cats.She's a sweet little girl and lets you know when she wants attention and when she wants to be left alone. She's about 5 now and never had much individual attention before but she's warming up to it fast. An evening in on the settee next to you suits her fine!She is very well behaved and gentle. Loves being stroked and having her belly rubbed. Loves chasing the laser pen and bits of string.She requires someone who is patient as she gets spooked easily and hides whenever she hears unknown noises or if there are any sudden movements around her.I can tell she really wants to go outside so a garden away from busy roads is a must.Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.
Andy and Saint
Foster in BristolAndy and Saint were found as older kittens who hadn't had much contact with humans and they've been a bit of a project!They've lived with us for two months and it's been quite a journey. They really didn't want to know us for the first month but in the last few weeks have changed their minds about humans and really come out of their shells and love to hang out.Saint, the tortie, is the tamest one. She loves to sit on my lap on the sofa and enjoys a snuggle in bed, having a fuss made of her. She'll return the love with a very loud purr. Andy is much shyer, but he'll let you stoke him in return for a treat. I think with a bit more time he could be a lap cat but for the time-being he's happy to hang out at a distance.They absolutely adore each other so come as a pair. They would be suited to a more rural location because Andy is so timid and nervous and wouldn't be safe in a built-up area and because of this they wouldn't be good around children. As I have mentioned, it has been quite a journey with them and are still work in progress so their adopted parents would need to be around a lot and continue working with them.Every little milestone is so rewarding with shy cats - anyone up for a challenge?!10 months old, neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.
Poppy & Portia
Foster in BristolTwo super affectionate older ladies who think they're still kittens, these beautiful girls love to be on your lap and will take all the fussing they can get.They can be either indoor cats or with a small enclosed garden for a bit of sunbathing on a sunny day- we doubt they'll venture out in Winter!Poppy and Portia will be 15 in July and are no trouble. Sweet, gentle and affectionate they would love a quieter home with lots of cuddles.Portia has a touch of arthritis for which she receives a once monthly injection of Solensia at our vets. She's also pre renal so is on a renal diet as a precaution.Poppy is hyperthyroid and just needs Thyronorm squirting into her mouth twice a day. BWCR will fund all their treatments at one of our vets - Hanham, Kingswood, Weston or Portishead.Their previous fosterer sadly died unexpectedly and we'd love to get them settled somewhere again in their retirement years.Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.Are you ready to adopt a cat from Bristol & Wales Cat Rescue?

Cherry & Hazel & Willow
Foster in BristolMeet the Treesome! Cherry (black) Hazel and Willow were trapped along with six others at Avonmouth. They were living in a very unsafe location and one of the other six got hit by a vehicle and had to have his leg amputated. The six were very lucky though as one of the finders adopted all of them. The Treesome are about a year old now and have come on in leaps and bounds during the last few weeks! Willow will give you a gentle nip to get attention whereas Cherry is vocal and little Hazel is very polite and just rubs up against you for attention, they are all purr machines when being fussed. They are still a bit timid when meeting new people but will be so rewarding once settled in their new home. They love to race around playing together and are very bonded so need to stay together, they have no road sense so will ideally need a rural location.

Polly
Foster in BristolPolly is a pretty girl of about 6 years old. She was living rough but a lady started to feed her and gain her trust so she could be chip checked. Leaflets and knocking on doors could not find her owner so she came into foster. Polly loves a chat and a fuss and will get straight on foster mum’s lap to snooze. She does get reactive to too much fuss though and will need someone experienced with cats to understand her body language and series of meows, she has begun to improve in foster. She loves her cat nip ball and chasing a bit of string so play will really help her to bond with a new family. She is best in a child-free house with a garden to go out in once she is ready. She hates other cats so needs to be the only pampered princess in the home. Polly is vaccinated and chipped ys cone with 5 weeks free insurance. . We think she has been neutered as there have been no signs of kittens but we would fund her neutering at our vets if needed. Are you ready to adopt a cat from Bristol & Wales Cat Rescue?

Biggie
Foster in BristolBiggie is a lovely 11 year old tabby boy, who has been a joy to foster. His previous owner recently had a baby, which has caused Biggie to have stress cystitis and his previous owner has reluctantly made the decision to rehome him to find somewhere quieter where Biggie will be happier. Biggie settled in with us very easily and was keen for strokes and affection almost immediately. He now loves to sit on a lap and will purr away while having his belly stroked. He doesn't require too much entertainment and will happily lounge around for a long time, but also has enjoyed chasing a ball or just some string. Biggie has a prrscription diet of urinary food to reduce the risk of his condition returning, and a Feliway diffuser also for stress relief, which he will have to continue with his new owner. His previous owner has also donated Biggie’s supply of food, medication, Feliway and a cat carrier he is comfortable with using. He had one episode when he first came to us - just the stress of the move and has been fine ever since. Biggie would like a quiet house away from busy roads, with a garden to explore and someone who can give him lots of love and attention. He should not live with small children or other cats, which may increase the chance of his cystitis flaring up, but he is friendly with guests and new people. Requiring only a little extra care, Biggie will make an excellent companion for anyone looking for a friendly, loving cat. We'd like Biggie to go to someone who will stay in touch with us as we will cover any vet bills relating to his cystitis at Fernlea vets in Kingswood and Hanham and also help with the cost of his food if necessary.

Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance (for everything except his cystitis!). *** If you're interested please mail us at [email protected] Are you ready to adopt a cat from Bristol & Wales Cat Rescue?

Django
Foster in ChippenhamAnyone who says a leopard (or should that be a house panther) can't change its spots, never met our handsome boy Django.Arriving with us back in March as a confused 9-year-old boy who didn't appreciate boundaries, he had learned to nip and swipe to get what he wanted (usually fuss, play or food), he's now realised that kind of behaviour doesn't get him what he wants any more!He does love a fuss, and sometimes still plays with his toys and, provided you don't over-stimulate him with too much of either in one go, he's the most delightful company.Because of his past behaviours, he'll need an experienced home, without young children who might not understand that he needs consistency and boundaries. Since being with his foster mum though, he's grown to tolerate (OK, mainly ignore!) her docile cocker spaniel, and gets along OK with her own two older, placid cats, if he's let out and about for a bit with them. For this reason, he'd probably be fine with another cat or a dog, provided they're calm and gentle and won't crowd him.He'd also like a safe outdoor space, away from busy roads, to explore and get some exercise in - he has quite the waistline currently...Unfortunately for Django, he was also diagnosed with very early stage renal issues. It's managed perfectly well through diet, but his new owner will need to continue to feed him the special renal diet food. BWCR can help fund his food and pay for his routine blood tests.Poor Django has been stuck on the shelf for about 6 months with us now; can you give him his chance at a happy future?
